What Non-Traditional Treatments Show Promise for MS?U.S. News & World Report

Conventional medicine has come a long way in the treatment of
multiple sclerosis, yet many patients are also using therapies
outside the mainstream to help them cope with symptoms of their
disease.

In fact, Dr. Melinda Ring, executive director of Chicago’s
Northwestern
Osher Center for Integrative Medicine, points out that the
popularity of non-conventional treatments among MS patients is
strong: “Surveys over the past decade show at least 60 percent of
the 400,000 MS patients choose some sort of integrative approach
along with their standard medications.”
